Hey Mike, Izzat drink so thick dat the straw will stick straight up? I donít have the Bumís books so could you please post the recipe? I luv the Ramos Fizz and the Bird looks delish.

They look amazing. Did you use 3tsp (equivalent 1/2 oz, seriously why didn't they just print 1/2 oz) of your homemade raspberry syrup? The Royal Rose has a nice color but didn't translate in my drink at all.

I have a small (shooter size) Measuring vessel that has ounce, t.spn, and tbl.spn marks on it.The 6 t.spn mark made it easy to make two drinks which turned out to be a lot.
Btw, I made the syrup with fresh berries using the same formula as you do for your Passionfruit syrup. Small pack of berries yielded about a cup and a half of syrup. Was awesome on Vanilla Bean Ice Creme too!
Tanks again, keep them recipes circulating.
Cheers, David

Just finished an original concoction with the working title, "The Waving Arms of Ke'li": spiced rum, lime, falernum, curaÁao, maraschino, Angostura and Pernod. I was inspired by the Rum Crusta Swizzle recipe from a Sailor Jerry ad in the July/August 2011 issue of Imbibe. Having tried that, I think spiced rum and maraschino liqueur play well together and wanted to experiment.
